Liu Tan was taken aback by Sang Hongyang, and he really jumped up and went to help him up. He made people sit down and said, "What is Da Sinong doing? This king can't bear this gift."

What Liu Tan said was right. These days, there is no such thing as the braided dynasty of later generations, where the royal family is the master and the ministers are the slaves.

The ministers are all scholar-bureaucrats, even the emperor must be polite to the scholar-bureaucrats, people with the status of Sangong, even the emperor has to salute each other with the ministers.

The emperor is like this, let alone Liu Tan, a little prince.

Sang Hongyang is Jiuqing, his status is second only to Sangong, and the most he talks with Liu is to hand over each other. How can Liu Tan stand up to his great gifts?

After sitting down, Sang Hongyang said, "I have something to ask you, my subordinate."

Liu Tan said solemnly: "There are not many things this king can do. Since Da Sinong has opened his mouth, I will do it no matter what. Just tell me."

Sang Hongyang was a little surprised: "Your Highness doesn't even ask you what you want?"

Liu Tan smiled: "I'm just a vassal king, even if some power is in the northern border country, in Chang'an, Da Si Nong can do more things than me, since Da Si Nong wants to entrust this king, then It must be related to the northern border country, if that is the case, there is nothing that this king cannot agree to except for illegal and criminal matters."

It is not an exaggeration to say that Liu Tan overshadows the sky with one hand in the northern border country. Huo Guang and others will indeed often preach to him earnestly, but generally, even Huo Guang will not insist on things that Liu Tan insists on.

Sang Hongyang looked a little better, and he said solemnly: "Your Highness is right, I just ask His Highness to take care of Sang Qian more."

Liu Tan was not surprised after hearing this, he had already guessed that Sang Hongyang might have done this for Sang Qian.

"Da Si Nong don't have to worry about Sang Qian. The king knows what happened to Sang Qian. He won't be able to stay in Xi'an Yang County for a few days now. When a suitable person takes over, the king will let him return to Shuofang City to serve as Secretary. Farming can be regarded as inheriting the father's business."

Sang Hongyang said: "I don't care what kind of official he is. I just hope that His Highness will not let him go back to Chang'an."

Liu Tan was a little surprised: "Huh?"

Liu Tan originally wanted to say that if Sang Hongyang missed his son, he could also give Sang Qian a holiday during the New Year and let him return to Chang'an to visit his old father, but Sang Hongyang refused to let Sang Qian come back?

Sang Hongyang continued: "If he offends anything, I will apologize to Your Highness first, as long as he has not committed any treason or immorality, please bear with me."

As he spoke, he wanted to salute again, so Liu Tan had no choice but to support him and asked, "What's the meaning of Da Sinong? What happened?"

Sang Hongyang's behavior is too abnormal. If Sang Qian had just been thrown by him to Xi'an Yang County as the sheriff, Liu Tan would have thought that Sang Hongyang was probably retreating to advance.

Of course, there is no need for Sang Hongyang to do this. His achievements and status are enough for him to give him face as long as he talks about it.

Now it's like this... probably something happened, and it was a major event. Sang Hongyang knew that time was running out, or that the entire Sang family might be in danger of being overthrown, so he came to ask Liu Tan.

Otherwise, with so many people in the Sang family, why would Liu Tan be needed to take care of Sang Qian?

When Liu talked about this, he couldn't help but feel a thump in his heart. Sang Hongyang...doesn't it have anything to do with Liu Quyu's treason case?

That's not right, when he asked Du Zhou to investigate, he only found some gifts between them and some invitations or invitations to the banquet.

These are normal human relations, and it is impossible to count them within the scope of the rebellious party, otherwise, with Liu Quyao's status at the time, most of the officials in Chang'an would have been taken over by one hand—even if there were any left, they would be those who were not qualified to talk to the prime minister. Contact officials.

Or did his father find out something?

If it is true, then Sang Hongyang is hiding it too well, right?

But there is no such reason.

Liu Tan frowned and looked at Sang Hongyang. Sang Hongyang sighed deeply and said, "To tell you the truth, His Majesty appointed you as the new Prime Minister this morning."

"Ah?" Liu Tan was taken aback when he heard the news unexpectedly.

After a long while, he hesitated and said, "This...the royal father values ​​you, so you don't... have to worry too much."

Sang Hongyang smiled wryly: "Your Highness, there is no need to persuade you to step down."

Liu Tan said sternly: "It's not that the king persuades you, but that when Sang Qian was in the northern border country, even though he was not capable enough at the beginning, he always abided by the law and never did anything to bully the people and do anything wrong. You said that there are only a few people in Chang'an City who can do this. He can do it naturally because Da Si Nong has taught well, and a good family education also means that Da Si Nong has a good character. A father can only affect his son by setting an example. Those few before... were not standing upright themselves, so they can't blame others."

Sang Hongyang said softly, "Your Highness has a high reputation. I don't dare to say that I am honest and upright, but I don't bother to do things that oppress the people. Now I just plan ahead. I hope that His Highness will take care of you for the sake of Sang Qian's honesty." two."

Liu Tanpo was a little dumbfounded, Sang Qian was much older than him, let him take care of Gu Sangqian...

However, looking at Sang Hongyang's calm face, he had a faint feeling that the other party had seen through the world of mortals. If there was Buddhism these days, or if Buddhism had been introduced to the Central Plains, this person must be able to become a monk immediately.

Liu Tan had no choice but to say: "Don't worry, Sang Qian has the talent of the country... Ahem, don't worry about this, the treatment of the country in our northern border country is quite good."

Well, at least it's not a consumable.

Sang Hongyang showed a smile on his face: "Then I will thank Your Highness for nurturing my ineffective son."

Seeing that he was finally relieved, Liu Tan said, "Actually, if the prime minister is worried, then don't worry about anything else, just do one thing well."

Sang Hongyang asked: "Your Highness is talking about opening up the sea?"

Liu Tan nodded seriously: "Father asked me to discuss with the prime minister, how much does the prime minister know?"

Sang Hongyang was a little embarrassed: "Well, I don't quite understand what His Highness means..."

It's not that he doesn't understand, the main reason is that Sang Hongyang was stunned by Liu Che's edict before he could remember and figure it out, and then he didn't have the mood to care about other things.

Now that he finally left it for his family, he didn't think about it, but he found that he had forgotten what Liu Tan said at the beginning, and only remembered that he was going to form a fleet to trade.

Liu Tan didn't realize there was a problem. His theory should be a little ahead of the time.

But the more advanced the better, after the Dahan currency has laid the foundation, the country's ability to deal with the economic crisis will become stronger.

Throughout history, every change of dynasty is nothing more than the reason of exorbitant taxes and natural and man-made disasters. If it is just a country that wants to deal with these two at the same time, it will easily cause problems if you are not careful. But if you transfer the risk to other countries, That big man is much more stable.

Liu Tan told Sang Hongyang his thoughts again, and then explained: "This is my family's opinion, and many places are quite whimsical, but the general idea should be correct."

Sang Hongyang's brain hole is already very big in this era, but no matter how big it is, it cannot be bigger than the current King of the North.

He was stunned for a while listening to what Liu Tan said, and after listening to it, he said slowly: "This matter... is of great importance, and I have to go back and think about it, but what your highness said is right, for us There is nothing wrong with saying nothing."

Although Sang Hongyang didn't quite understand what Liu Tan was talking about about exchange and risk transfer, he could understand Liu Tan's example, and by the way saw through the essence of it—making money!

Of course, this method cannot be used too much, and it is easy to cause problems if it is used too much, but once the big man encounters some financial crisis or the like, he can completely rely on this method to maintain his own stability.

In other words, this method of His Royal Highness the King of the Northern Territory can make the economic system of the Han Dynasty more stable!

Sang Hongyang only felt that his thinking had broadened. He is also a workaholic. At his position, he doesn't think so much about being an official. What he wants to do is to do more things that will be famous in history.

After thinking about it, he regretted and said, "Unfortunately, it takes time."

He is not young now, and he wonders if he will see that day in his lifetime.

Liu Tan stroked his chin and said, "Actually...not necessarily."

Sang Hongyang looked up at Liu Tan and asked, "Is there any other way, Your Highness?"

Liu Tan said in a low voice: "I heard that there are many small countries in the Jiaozhi country. There are constant disputes like the Western Regions. We don't need to support a certain country. We can be a ruthless arms dealer."

"What?" Sang Hongyang was a little surprised: "Sell weapons?"

Liu Tan said: "That's right, especially those countries outside this plateau, even if they are given weapons, it is impossible to cross the plateau to deal with big men, not to mention... as long as we sell them the weapons that have been upgraded before, they will be able to deal with them." Better than what they're using now, and we can make some money by recycling it."

How did the United States dominate the world?Didn't they start their business by selling various weapons through the wind of World War II?

It has not been many years for a country whose history books are not as thick as the recipes of flower growers to become the number one in the world. It can be seen that this is a shortcut.

After hearing this, Sang Hongyang was thoughtful. This is indeed a solution. He narrowed his eyes and said, "However, it depends on whether there is any friction between those countries."

Liu Tan rubbed his hands and said, "Isn't this difficult? You can create conflicts without conflicts. As long as you do it in a concealed manner, it's not a problem at all."

Sang Hongyang looked at Liu Tan in shock, and suddenly understood why his son was dealt with so badly after he arrived in the Northern Kingdom.

He just wanted to write a letter to his son as soon as possible, telling him to be more honest--the king of the Northern Realm was definitely merciful back then!
